Welcome to the Writer's Place: I am Sri Lanka

I am sure
by now
you have seen
the newscasts
showing how the waves
pushed everything
in their wake
to a dramatic end.

The broken homes,
the ruined cars,
the screaming women,
the half-naked men,
the dead children.

I am sure
by now
you have seen
the look on my face
when you walk
by me
at the bus stop,

the awe…

is no different.
